Indian Katrina Kaif Gallery

Nickname :
Kat
Height : 5' 8½" (1.74 m)
Date of Birth : 16 July 1984
Born on July 16, 1984 Katrina Kaif is one of eight siblings, all girls, from a
mother who is a Caucasian of British Nationality, and a father who was formerly
from Kashmir, India, but who has since acquired British citizenship.
Katrina grew up in Hawaii, but was brought up in London, UK. She started
modeling accidentally when she was in Hawaii at the tender age of 14, when she
was approached for a jewelery campaign. Thereafter she continued modeling in
London.
Continuing to model was the reason she got her break in a Bollywood movie
"Boom" offered by none other than film-maker Kaizad Gustad.
She was flooded with modeling assignments the minute she set her foot on Indian
soil, especially with her innocent expressive face, hour-glass figure, and
drop-dead gorgeous looks.
Katrina Kaif, one of the most sought after actress in Bollywood, debuted with a
bang through ‘Boom’, a movie about models getting caught up with the
underworld. Though the movie bombed, people couldn’t easily forget her angelic
face and voluptuous figure. Not many have gained the fans and popularity as a
new entrant as Katrina has done.

Katrina is half Indian and half British. Her father is and NRI and her mother
is English, which makes her poor at Hindi. Initially critics were very harsh on
her for her poor Hindi. But she has worked hard on her Hindi and started taking
dancing lessons—both very essential to survive in the industry. Now she has
started dubbing on her own. She has done few movies down south and is a popular
face there already.
She has done two Telugu movies - Malliswari(2004) and Allari Pidugu(2005) and a
Malayalam film (Balram vs. Taradas). In 2005 she starred in ‘Maine Pyaar Kyun
Kiya’ opposite Salman Khan and Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Sarkar’. ‘Hum Ko Deewana Kar
Gaye’ with Akshay Kumar followed.
Katrina was born on July 16, 1984, in Hong Kong, grew up in Hawaii and then
moved to London. Even at the young age of 14, she got modeling offers and
started out by modeling for a jewelry campaign. She was attracted to her
father’s native land and the moment she landed in India she was flooded with
modeling assignments.
She started off with photographer Atul Kasbekar. Later she got offers from
Lakme, LG, Cola, Fevicol, Pantene, Veet, Kodak, and L’Oreal. She was chosen as
the face of the year for the Lakme India Fashion Week (2005). The Lakme
commercial made her very popular. Soon Kaizad Gustad, the director of ‘Boom’
noticed her and offered her a role in the film. Since it was the role of a
model, she promptly agreed.
Although she wears bold outfits on films and ads, she is very particular about
her clothes and she feels more comfortable in not-so-revealing clothes in
personal life. And unlike others in her field she absolutely hates wearing make
up.
Although she has been seeing Salman Khan for sometime now, she still refuses to
talk about him in the media. She has made it clear that her personal life is
not meant to be known to all and that no one has a right to pass any kind of
judgment on it.
She has lot of exciting projects lined up. One of them is ‘Partner’ with
boyfriend Salman Khan and Govinda. She is also doing ‘Apne’ in which real life
father and sons Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol all stars together in the
movie, for the first time. Then there is Anees Bazmee’s ‘Welcome’ with Akshay
Kumar. Another film with Akshay Kumar ‘Namaste, London’ is all set..
